Our Verdict
Samsung QN90B QLED
Samsung QN95B QLED
The Samsung QN90B QLED and the Samsung QN95B QLED deliver nearly identical performance; the biggest difference between them is their design. The QN95B's inputs are all housed in an external One Connect box instead of on the back of the TV. It helps deliver a cleaner setup overall, with a single cable going from the One Connect box to the TV, so it's easier to hide if you're going for a clean setup with no visible wires. The QN90B doesn't have this external input box, so your input cables have to be routed to the back of the TV instead.
